MAIN DRIVE CHAIN AND SPROCKETS LUBRICATION (continued): Recommended types of chain lubricant are those with Molybdenum Disulphide or Graphite added.

Upon assembly, be sure the connecting link is installed so the spring<br />

clip is orientated with its opening facing "opposite" the direction of the<br />

chain travel (See Diagram). <br />
